Mack, Geotab sign agreement to provide connectivity to older Mack trucks

Mack Trucks has announced that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with telematics provider Geotab, which will enable connectivity for older Mack vehicles not currently equipped with Mack GuardDog Connect, Mack’s integrated telematics solution.

“We are pleased to sign this agreement with Geotab because it will offer Mack customers who previously did not have access to data and services the ability to be connected,” said David Pardue, Mack’s vice president of connected vehicles and uptime services. “Customers with Mack vehicles not already equipped with GuardDog Connect now will have the opportunity to utilize proven connected services to enhance fleet operations.”

Details regarding the new service offerings through Mack connected vehicle services have not yet been finalized. Geotab will be available for older vehicles and will not replace GuardDog Connect.
